[QUOTE="You Gonna Learn Today, post: 127923, member: 13086"] I will give my personal experience with TRT. I myself was/am considered obese. At my highest I was at 245 and also 5'6" like you. It is a constant circle you deal with. Low energy, low libido, low self-esteem, and all of the other standard low T symptoms. I got on TRT and it has helped me with all of the mental symptoms that were causing a lot of the issues. It's also helped with energy, libido, and overall mental awareness. If I were to go back in time the only thing I would change is finding this forum a LOT sooner. I wasted about a year and a half doing it all wrong. This site has helped a ton with doing things right and giving me a better understanding of TRT. As far as the weight goes, you need to change your diet. Unless you have major thyroid or hormonal issues causing other issues, your diet will change so many things for you. Doing TRT alone will not solve all of your problems. I thought it would for about a year and then I decided to finally change my diet. Since removing sugar, bread, tortillas, and all off the processed junk food I've dropped 39 lbs. As of this morning I weighed in at 206. I'm pushing to get to my goal weight of 185 and it's not far off. It will take time and that's the main thing you have to understand. Regardless of the energy, motivation, and all other excuses we sometimes make (because I made them all the time so I know about them), the diet is what is going to get you to lose the weight. Take it from someone your height who was/is also obese. Get on the Keto diet or something similar that cuts carbs and you will get the weight down. Even if you don't get on TRT, doing that alone may make a difference for you. But again, the only things I would change about starting TRT is not doing it sooner and not finding this site sooner. Good luck! PM me if you ever need any advice on the diet part. I'm no expert, but I can probably help you out and I'm sure you can visit the other parts of this forum for nutrition. I'm 100% certain there are plenty of posts on here regarding the topic. I have a friend of mine that I convinced to get on keto with me. He's 5'10" and was at 306 when he started.
